With the NBA season winding down, fantasy managers scramble for late‑season steamers. Jeremiah Fears of the Utah Jazz is firing on all cylinders, averaging 17.7 PPG and 2.1 threes in his last seven games. His surge offers a fresh spark for teams still chasing championships.

In the backcourt, Tre Jones of the Bulls remains a reliable flex option, while Daniss Jenkins of the Pistons has carved out a steady 20‑point role. Their consistent output gives managers depth without sacrificing upside.

On the wing, Will Riley of the Washington Wizards has exploded, posting an average of 22.0 PPG with 1.9 threes over his most recent seven outings, including four starts. Riley’s scoring rhythm makes him a high‑value pickup for squads needing a late‑season punch.

For power‑forward slots, Cameron Johnson of the Nuggets is regaining form, contributing 15 points per game since mid‑March, while Naji Marshall of the Mavericks offers a 20/5/5 platform. These players provide reliable floor‑spacing and rebounding for teams looking to finish strong.
